Day 12

No pictures today but maybe tonight.  We have been without internet and cell service for a few days and it has been peaceful!!
We will depart Glacier this morning and head for points west.  Glacier has been very very fun.  We have seen mountain goats, a grizzly, a black bear, deer, a coyote and more.  The scenery is so beautiful and the hikes have been fun.  Yesterday we walked about a mile and a half to a waterfall that was about 100 feet high. 
The people we have met have been so friendly and so many love our camper.  By the way we have survived 4 days without electrical hookup.  I started the car three times to make sure the battery did not go below 11.1 as that is when the cooler shuts down.  This morning it was 11.7 so we will be good to go until tonight when we need to plug in.
We did miss calling Aaron on his 40th on Monday and Stephanie, Terry's niece, on Tuesday. 
I often think of our two days with my friend Larry.  I purchased a rifle from him but he will not miss it.  He claims he is down sizing in his guns but we will see.  He is not sure how many he has but my guess would be close to three figures. 
As I sit here this morning I can see mountain peaks all around me and soon the sun will be in my face which will mean I will not be able to see the screen.
We have seen so many different campers.  We talked with a couple who have a 23 foot Airstream.  They had a huge rig before and traveled the 49 continental states in three years with it.  Pretty interesting to talk to.  We saw a medium size home made plywood camper yesterday.  I don't think I would like to pull that through the mountains.
With no electrial the computer is getting low as is my FP.
